This is called a mutation. One example is if a fly is born without wings, or if an organism is born with no fingers, or six fingers. Would webbed toes also be a mutation? I have them.

The permanent change(s) in a gene or chromosome include two different eye colors, appearance, and different or no eyebrows. These permanent changes are called Mutations. Everyone has different genes. this is why no one looks the same. Twins have some of the same DNA, so they look alike.

sickle cell anemia is caused by a substitution in the betahemoglobin gene which alters a single amino acid in the protein produced. change a codon to one that encodes the same amino acid and causes no change in the protein produced. These are called silent mutations.
